I'm looking for a little motivation and I think some competition will really amp it up for me.
Anyone interested in doing a Biggest Loser, starting soon? Or perhaps point me towards one that's just beginning?

we did something similar at my work. i figured i would share how we ran it... we didn't do total weight loss, as the women felt it was unfair since men lose quicker. we also thought it was easier for heavier people to lose than people who just had a smaller amount to lose. we all put in 20 bucks, and you paid 2 bucks for every pound you gained. if you lost 10 percent of your starting weight, you got the money. we had about 15 people and a few of us split a few hundred bucks. very motivating. good luck!0

I would love to do this - there is a Biggest Loser group and even though you can join it, you cannot be an active participant because they already have their teams established. Whoever put it together looked like they really had it organized.....with teams and challenges.0

I'm glad to see all the interest, and I'm hugely open to suggestions on how you guys would like it to be run.
I was originally thinking about it being an individual competition, but if there are enough people and teams are preferred, we can explore that too!
The BL competition I did at my work a year or two ago was an individual competition and was $20 to enter, with all the money going to the winner. Winning was established by the person who lost the highest percentage of body weight during the competition. I did not want to impose the monetary side as I can understand how some people might be apprehensive about chipping money in over the internet with people they don't "know", however if members are up for that, it could easily be done through Paypal.
Personally, I have a lot to lose and I think the easiest and most fair way to do things would be to hold a competition with people who are in similar positions. I don't, however, want anyone to feel left out, so if there are people who really want to join but have less to lose, we can try and figure out the best way to judge everything.
Keep the suggestions coming!0 -

Enjoy your weekend, because we're gonna get down & dirty starting Monday!!0 -
I would love to as well!!!0
